Easy there guys. When Obama and Democrats get lampooned by Limbaugh and others it is humorous entertainment. When a Republican pol gets lampooned then suddenly GOPpers lose their famous sense of humor. After all isn't that what MAD magazine is --entertainment? Come on, guys! Are your rectums so tight they can choke off a smile? Lighten up!

Hey 'Z'...I did get a real laugh out of your post....due to the lack on intellect! Actually, I find most of the thoughts that Liberals post....funny....sad but none the less, funny!

Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) said he believes government employees should get back pay and, since many may be living "paycheck to paycheck," he asserted, “We as a Congress need to be more sensitive to their needs.”

Union officials estimate roughly 800,000 workers will be furloughed as "non-essential" employees in the event of a government shutdown and will demand retroactive pay because the furloughs would "add insult to injury for workers who have been living under a pay freeze for three years."

“We are trying to maintain pressure on this White House that in the event of a government shutdown, that any negotiated settlement includes an agreement that all federal employees — essential and non-essential alike — get paid when the government reopens,” Matt Biggs, legislative director for the International Federation of Professional & Technical Engineers (IFPTE), toldThe Hill.

No surprise. They have gotten this in the past.

They're living paycheck to paycheck? Still doing much better than people who were forced to become part-time employees ... permanently.
